The Watchtower, “Appreciating Basic Christian Publications”

15 May 1957 · pp.311-317 (par. 17 on p. 316) · par. 17 · Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society

“First, Egypt was a Devil-ruled pagan country, not a place for divine revelation; second, God does not accomplish his work through the type of slave labor that built the pyramids; third, Christians are told that they must live by faith, not by sight”

Points a reader is told to draw from the 15 Nov and 1 Dec 1928 issues when someone raises the Great Pyramid.
